So you are all probably wondering why I haven't been posting as of late - well, I've been running around learning all about what the Dartmouth campus has to offer and also trying to get professors to agree to let me work in their labs. And also, our damn DSL line is down, so all of my home internet use is over dialup. I had forgotten how much dialup sucks...the slow-ass speed, the random hanging up of the modem, and, best of all, that ear-splitting sound made by the modem as you dial in. I know, I could turn the sound off, but some sick part of me actually has a bit of nostalgia for it.
